"This is our teacher…”
"How ridiculous that he wanted to take as a disciple initially, and I was unwilling…”
Yu Xiaoyu and Liu Mingyue murmured to themselves simultaneously.
"Our Fu Family, it seems we have truly found a great support!”
"Earlier I was wondering why Yingying chose soone with such low cultivation; after all that fuss, he turns out to be a true genius!”
The people of the Fu Family looked at one another, excitent evident on their faces.
...
While their family appeared glorious on the surface, in reality, they relied on many powers to remain unchallenged, but now, this standout individual closely related to them would deter anyone from targeting the won of the Fu Family.
"This matter must be reported to the headquarters of the Heaven Mandate Hall at once!”
"With such talent, we must not make an enemy of him, we must foster a good relationship…”
At this mont, everyone at the Heaven Mandate Hall was at a loss for words.
Just monts ago, Zhang Xuan publicly executed Shi Yunjing, which made them furious and eager for revenge, but now that feeling had faded.
He could kill even those of the Galaxy 9-dan; many of them together wouldn’t be enough to take him on!
"Look quickly, those bronze tripods…”
In the midst of their shock, a sudden shout rang out.
Unable to help themselves, everyone looked up and saw the bronze tripods floating in the air suddenly shake, then fly towards the surrounding mountainsides, embedding themselves back into the mountains.
Boom!
As the copper tripod returned, the ground shook imdiately, and in the next mont, colorful flowing lights from the sky descended fiercely, transforming into a pure white light that rushed towards Empyrean Kong shi standing not far away.
In an instant, Empyrean Kong shi was enveloped by the light, and an ethereal River of Destiny appeared above him, stretching endlessly and vigorously roiling.
"The Heavenly Destiny of Ceremony acknowledges its master, it will be forged any ti now, Zhilan Valley is about to collapse!”
"Run quickly…”
Feeling this scene, everyone imdiately realized sothing was wrong and looked up in unison.
Zhang Xuan too couldn’t help but look towards the sky.
He saw huge cracks appearing in The Firmant above, like a deflated gas mbrane or shattered glass do.
"With the destiny inherited, the Heaven Mandate Domain can no longer hold…”
Zhang Xuan suddenly understood.
He had encountered this situation twice before; once at the Fu Family, and the other ti at Mo Baiye’s ho.
Whenever soone completely inherited it, the Domain would shatter and cease to exist.
The resources and strength born within would lt into nourishnt, enhancing the cultivation of the inheritor of the fragnts of heavens.
"How do we get out? How do we escape?”
Although they knew this world was about to collapse, no one knew how to escape, everyone was anxious but clueless.
The entrance was too far from here, and without the ability to use strength, depending solely on their physical bodies, it would take three to four hours to reach, and there clearly wasn’t enough ti now. 𝖗Ä𝐍𝐨𐌱Ěś
Not escaping, and waiting for death was obviously not an option either.
"I will give you a chance!”
Just then, a faint voice ca from above, everyone looked up and saw Empyrean Kong shi enveloped in light, gently shaking his head and flicking his finger.
Swish!
A small crack suddenly appeared before everyone; behind it was the scene outside the Heaven Mandate Domain.
Seeing the crack, everyone knew they had no choice but to leave or die there; without saying more, they rushed forward.
"Move aside, I’m the first to go…”
"Get out of my way, I’m going out first…”
The crevice was narrow, allowing only one person to pass through at a ti. In their haste to escape, people began fighting one another, and in the blink of an eye, the scene of escape turned into a chaotic battleground.
Previously, when they fought over the Bronze Tripod, not too many had died, but now, bodies kept falling one after the other.
Zhang Xuan frowned deeply, and after a while, he couldn’t help but look up at Empyrean Kong shi, not far away: “Since you’ve already obtained the inheritance of Zhou Ji, why wait until the very end to co out?”
This was sothing he had never been able to figure out.
Since Empyrean Kong shi had acquired recognition and could even control four Bronze Tripods, there was no difference between appearing three days earlier or three days later!
In fact, whether these people were allowed to co here or not didn’t make much of a difference either!
Why wait all this ti and even risk them killing each other?
"To inherit the Heavenly Destiny of Ceremony, one naturally has to perform sufficient rituals…”
Empyrean Kong shi figured out his thoughts and spoke.
"Sufficient rituals?”
Zhang Xuan was taken aback, his pupils suddenly constricted: “What you an is…”
"Exactly, a Blood Tribute is needed! And they, are the offerings.”
Empyrean Kong shi shook his head: “Humans die for wealth as birds die for food… It’s their choice!”
Zhang Xuan fell silent.
Rituals, not only comprised various intricate rules but also involved reverence towards the heavens and the powerful, as well as restrictions on human nature.
Truly strict rituals, in offering to the heavens, required not just the placent of artifacts but also sufficient lives.
This referred to human sacrifice.
Empyrean Kong shi must have understood the Heavenly Destiny of Ceremony and lacked only the final life offering for recognition, thus intentionally drew people here and gathered them all in this place, using the Bronze Tripods to incite them to massacre each other…
No wonder it was said Emperor Shen Ling was not destined for this.
Because from the beginning, his fate was set, no matter how hard he tried or how much he sacrificed, he was just a pawn in Empyrean Kong shi’s inheritance of the divine mandate.
Upon reaching the mountain peak and not seeing Empyrean Kong shi, he guessed all these reasons, thus letting everyone fight over the tripod, indifferent to the outco.
However, he wasn’t sure at the ti; now seeing Empyrean Kong shi admitting it, he was certain.
Yes, it was their choice.
If not for the greed in their hearts, how could they have died here, and how could they have beco sacrificial offerings in soone else’s design?
"Teacher, do you, do you know him?”
While he was reflecting, Yu Xiaoyu, Liu Mingyue, and others looked towards Empyrean Kong shi with awe, disbelief in their eyes.
After arriving in Zouyi City, although they had been cultivating in seclusion, they were not completely ignorant of outside affairs and had heard about the “Mandate Chaos Master” and knew the kind of reaction their appearance would provoke throughout Heaven Mandate Hall.
If he was indeed the Mandate Chaos Master pursued by the Heaven Mandate Hall of Zouyi City, and was so familiar with the teacher, even joining forces just now to kill Emperor Shen Ling…
Could it be that the teacher was also a Mandate Chaos Master?
"Empyrean Kong shi and I are both teacher and friend!” Zhang Xuan smiled slightly.
The three disciples looked at each other, unable to speak anymore.
The teacher’s words had already explained everything.
"Hahaha, the so-called Mandate Chaos Masters are just a title they concocted out of fear!”
Guessing their thoughts, Empyrean Kong shi smiled slightly, looking at Zhang Xuan: “Teacher Zhang, long ti no see!”
Leaving the Empyrean and the New World together to co to this place, this was technically their first eting in the Source World.
Zhang Xuan smiled lightly, looking back and spoke softly: “Empyrean Kong shi, long ti no see!”
(Volu Two [Empyrean Kong shi, Long Ti No See] ends. Please look forward to the next volu [This Destiny, Unnecessary!]).
